Benefits of Sencha Green Tea
Regular sencha is a staple tea in Japan. It’s possible that tea consumption and healthier eating and exercising habits are responsible for longer life-expectancy and better quality of life. However, any tea that you don’t really enjoy might bring you more harm than benefits. To get the most benefits from green tea you should pay attention to the brewing method, use fresh and properly stored quality tea, and make tea a part of your lifestyle.
Green tea has been the subject of many studies. The benefits of green tea come from antioxidants. Antioxidants can fight free radicals and decrease oxidative stress. Every green tea contains antioxidants. Depending on the type, levels can be extremely low or very high. A study published last year says that tea from Japan might have more catechins than green tea from other countries.

anti-bacterial properties
prevention of some bacterial and virus infections
preventing tooth decay

In fact, Japanese sencha might have more catechins than matcha, but they will never be fully extracted into your cup. This brings into focus powdered sencha tea. You can ground your own tea at home, but make sure it’s fresh, safe, and tasty. By drinking powdered tea, you are ingesting all nutrients, good or bad. Therefore, knowing your tea is very important.
